A particular number is written as 132 in radix-4 representation. The same number in radix-5 representation is _________.
Correct Answer:
110
Solution:
Here's how you can approach the problem:
- The number given in radix-4 is 132.
- Convert this number to decimal:
= ( - Now, convert the decimal number 30 to radix-5.
To convert the decimal number to radix-5, we divide the decimal number by 5 repeatedly, keeping track of the remainder. The remainders, read in reverse order, give the equivalent number in radix-5.
- 30 ÷ 5 = 6, remainder 0
- 6 ÷ 5 = 1, remainder 1
- remainder 1
So, the radix-5 representation is 110.
